< Amahubo 18 >
1 Ngizakuthanda, Nkosi, mandla ami.
Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Awurade akoa Dawid dwom. Ɔtoo saa dwom yi maa Awurade, bere a ogyee no fii nʼatamfo nyinaa ne Saulo nsam no. Medɔ wo, Awurade, mʼahoɔden.
2 INkosi ilidwala lami, lenqaba yami, lomkhululi wami; uNkulunkulu wami, idwala lami, engizaphephela kulo, isihlangu sami, lophondo losindiso lwami, inqaba yami ephakemeyo.
Awurade ne me botantim; mʼaban ne me gyefo; me Nyankopɔn yɛ me botan. Ne mu na minya me hintabea. Ɔyɛ me nkatabo, me nkwagye abɛn ne mʼabandennen.
3 Ngizabiza iNkosi edumisekayo, ngakho ngizasindiswa ezitheni zami.
Misu frɛ Awurade; ɔno na ayeyi sɛ no, efisɛ ogye me fi mʼatamfo nsam.
4 Izibopho zokufa zangizingelezela, lezikhukhula zobubi zangethusa.
Owu nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn kyekyeree me; na ɔsɛe asorɔkye bu faa me so.
5 Izibopho zesihogo zangigombolozela, imijibila yokufa yayiphambi kwami. (Sheol )
Ɔda mu hama kyekyeree me; mihyiaa owu mfiri. (Sheol )
6 Ekuhluphekeni kwami ngayibiza iNkosi, ngakhala kuNkulunkulu wami; walizwa ilizwi lami esethempelini lakhe, lokukhala kwami kweza phambi kwakhe, endlebeni zakhe.
Mʼahohia mu, misu frɛɛ Awurade. Misu frɛɛ me Nyankopɔn hwehwɛɛ mmoa. Ofi nʼasɔrefi hɔ tee me nne; me sufrɛ baa nʼanim, na ɛkɔɔ nʼasom.
7 Khona umhlaba wazamazama, wanyikinyeka, lezisekelo zezintaba zaqhaqhazela, zazamazama, ngoba wayethukuthele.
Asase wosowee na ehinhimii, na mmepɔw fapem wosowee wosuroe, efisɛ na ne bo afuw.
8 Kwenyuka intuthu emakhaleni akhe, lomlilo ophuma emlonyeni wakhe waqothula; amalahle avuthiswa yiwo.
Wusiw fii ne hwene mu; ogyaframa fii nʼanom, na nnyansramma dɛw fii mu.
9 Wasekhothamisa amazulu, wehlela phansi, lomnyama onzima wawungaphansi kwenyawo zakhe.
Ofii ɔsoro baa fam; na omununkum kabii duruu nʼanan ase.
10 Wasegada ikherubhi, waphapha, wandiza phezu kwempiko zomoya.
Ɔte kerubim so tu kɔɔ soro; gyaagyaa ne ho wɔ mframa ntaban so.
11 Wamisa umnyama waba yindawo yakhe yensitha, idumba lakhe inhlangothi zonke zakhe, amanzi amnyama, amayezi amnyama omkhathi.
Ɔde sum kataa ne ho, osu a amuna tumm atwa ne ho ahyia.
12 Ekukhazimuleni okuphambi kwakhe amayezi akhe amnyama edlula, isiqhotho lamalahle omlilo.
Hann kɛse hyerɛn wɔ nʼanim, na omununkum a mparuwbo ne anyinam wɔ mu fii ne ho hyerɛn mu bae.
13 INkosi yasiduma emazulwini, oPhezukonke wazwakalisa ilizwi lakhe, isiqhotho lamalahle omlilo.
Awurade bobɔɔ mu fii ɔsoro; Ɔsorosoroni no nne gyigyee bio.
14 Yasithuma imitshoko yayo, yabachitha; lemibane eminengi, yabaphaphathekisa.
Ɔtow ne bɛmma no de bɔɔ atamfo no ahwete, ɔde anyinam a ano yɛn den pam wɔn.
15 Khona kwabonakala imisele yamanzi, kwembulwa izisekelo zomhlaba ekusoleni kwakho, Nkosi, ekuvutheleni komoya wamakhala akho.
Po mu abon ho yiyii na asase nnyinaso ho daa hɔ, esiane wʼanimka ne ahomegu a efi wo hwene mu no nti, Awurade.
16 Yathuma iphezulu, yangibamba, yangenyula emanzini amanengi.
Ofi soro baa fam besoo me mu; ɔtwee me fii nsu a mu dɔ mu.
17 Yangophula esitheni sami esilamandla, lakibo abangizondayo, ngoba babelamandla kulami.
Ogyee me fii me tamfo hoɔdenfo nsam, wɔn a wɔn ani sa me, na wɔn ho yɛ den dodo ma me no.
18 Babephambi kwami osukwini lwenhlupheko yami, kodwa iNkosi yaba yisisekelo sami.
Wɔbaa me so wɔ mʼamanehunu da mu, nanso Awurade maa me so,
19 Yangikhuphela endaweni ebanzi, yangikhulula ngoba yayithokoza ngami.
wode me baa baabi a hɔ trɛw; ogyee me, efisɛ nʼani sɔɔ me.
20 INkosi yangivuza njengokulunga kwami; yangibuyisela njengokuhlanzeka kwezandla zami.
Awurade ne me adi no sɛnea me trenee te; wahwɛ me nsa a ho tew so atua me ka.
21 Ngoba ngizilondolozile indlela zeNkosi, kangisukanga kuNkulunkulu wami ngenkohlakalo.
Manantew Awurade akwan so. Mentwee me ho mfii me Nyankopɔn ho nkɔyɛɛ bɔne ɛ.
22 Ngoba zonke izahlulelo zayo zaziphambi kwami, lezimiso zayo kangiziphambulanga kimi.
Madi ne mmara nyinaa so: mimmuu nʼahyɛde so.
23 Njalo ngangiqondile kuyo, ngizinqandile ebubini bami.
Me ho nni asɛm wɔ Onyankopɔn anim, na matwe me ho afi bɔne ho.
24 Ngakho iNkosi ingibuyisele njengokulunga kwami, njengokuhlanzeka kwezandla zami phambi kwamehlo ayo.
Awurade agyina me treneeyɛ ne me nsa a ho tew wɔ nʼanim no so atua me ka.
25 Kolesihawu uzaziveza ulesihawu; koqotho uzaziveza uqotho;
Woda wo ho adi sɛ ɔnokwafo kyerɛ wɔn a wodi nokware, wɔn a wodi mu nso wokyerɛ wɔn sɛ wodi mu.
26 kohlanzekileyo uzaziveza uhlanzekile; lakophambukileyo uzaziveza uphambukile.
Woyɛ kronkron ma wɔn a wɔyɛ kronkron, na amumɔyɛfo de, wukyi wɔn.
27 Ngoba wena uzabasindisa abantu abahlutshwayo; kodwa amehlo aphakemeyo uzawehlisela phansi.
Wugye ahobrɛasefo nkwa, na wobrɛ ahantanfo ase.
28 Ngoba wena uzalumathisa isibane sami; iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wami, izakhanyisa ubumnyama bami.
Awurade, woma me kanea hyerɛn. Yiw, woma me sum dan hann.
29 Ngoba ngawe ngigijimile ngadabula phakathi kwebutho, langoNkulunkulu wami ngeqe umthangala.
Wʼahoɔden a wode ma me nti, mitumi ka asraafo gu; me Nyankopɔn nti, mitumi foro ɔfasu.
30 UNkulunkulu, indlela yakhe iphelele; ilizwi leNkosi lihloliwe; uyisihlangu kubo bonke abaphephela kuye.
Onyankopɔn de, nʼakwan yɛ pɛ; Awurade bɔhyɛ nyinaa ba mu. Ɔyɛ nkatabo ma wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ bammɔ wɔ ne mu.
31 Ngoba ngubani onguNkulunkulu ngaphandle kweNkosi? Njalo ngubani olidwala ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu wethu?
Na hena na ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn ka Awurade ho? Hena na ɔyɛ Ɔbotan no? Gye sɛ yɛn Nyankopɔn no.
32 NguNkulunkulu ongibhincisa amandla, owenza indlela yami iphelele.
Ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn na ɔma me ahoɔden, na ɔma me kwan yɛ pɛ.
33 Owenza inyawo zami zibe njengezezimpala, wangimisa ezingqongeni zami.
Ɔma mʼanammɔn ho yɛ hare sɛ ɔforote de. Ɔma me gyina sorɔnsorɔmmea.
34 Ofundisela izandla zami impi, ukuze idandili lethusi ligotshiswe zingalo zami.
Osiesie me ma ɔko, na me basa tumi kuntun kɔbere mfrafrae tadua.
35 Unginikile lesihlangu sosindiso lwakho, lesandla sakho sokunene singisekele, lobumnene bakho bungikhulisile.
Wode wo ogye boa me nkatabo, na wo nsa nifa ma me gyina. Wobrɛ wo ho ase ma meyɛ ɔkɛse.
36 Wenze zaba banzi izinyathelo zami ngaphansi kwami, ukuze inyawo zami zingatsheleli.
Woabɔ kwan tɛtrɛɛ ama mʼanan sɛnea me nkotodwe rengurow.
37 Ngixotshene lezitha zami, ngazifica, kangibuyanga ngaze ngaziqeda.
Metaa mʼatamfo kɔtoo wɔn; mansan mʼakyi kosii sɛ mesɛee wɔn.
38 Ngazigwaza, zaze zehluleka ukuvuka, zawa ngaphansi kwenyawo zami.
Mɛdwerɛw wɔn, na wɔantumi ansɔre, wɔhwehwee ase wɔ mʼanan ase.
39 Ngoba ungibhincise amandla kusenzelwa impi, wabakhothamisela phansi kwami abangivukelayo.
Wode akodi ahoɔden maa me; womaa mʼatamfo bɔɔ wɔn mu ase wɔ me nan ase.
40 Unginike intamo yezitha zami, labo abangizondayo ngababhubhisa.
Womaa mʼatamfo dan wɔn ho guanee, na mesɛe wɔn a wɔtan me.
41 Bakhala, kodwa engekho umsindisi; eNkosini, kodwa kayibaphendulanga.
Wosu hwehwɛɛ mmoa, nanso obiara ammegye wɔn, wɔfrɛɛ Awurade, nanso wammua.
42 Ngasengibacholisisa njengothuli phambi komoya, ngabachitha njengodaka lwezitalada.
Meyam wɔn sɛ mfutuma a mframa bɔ gu; mihwiee wɔn guu sɛ mmɔnten so dontori.
43 Wangikhulula ekuphikiseni kwabantu, wangimisa ngaba yinhloko yezizwe; abantu engangingabazi bangisebenzela.
Woagye me afi nnipa no ɔfow mu, woayɛ me amanaman no ti; nnipa a minnim wɔn abɛyɛ mʼasomfo.
44 Bangenela ukuzwa ngendlebe bazangilalela, abezizweni bazazithoba kimi ngokuzenzisa.
Wɔte me nka pɛ a, wɔyɛ osetie ma me; ananafo kotow mʼanim.
45 Abezizweni bazabuna, baphume ezinqabeni zabo bethuthumela.
Wɔn nyinaa botobotow; wofi wɔn abandennen mu ba ahopopo so.
46 INkosi iyaphila; njalo kalidunyiswe idwala lami, kaphakanyiswe uNkulunkulu wosindiso lwami.
Awurade te ase! Ayeyi nka me Botan! Wɔmma Onyankopɔn, me Gyefo no din so!
47 UNkulunkulu onginika impindiselo, lowehlisela izizwe ngaphansi kwami;
Ɔno ne Onyankopɔn a ɔtɔ were ma me, ɔno na ɔka amanaman hyɛ mʼase,
48 ongikhulula ezitheni zami; yebo, phezu kwabangivukelayo wangiphakamisa, emuntwini wodlakela wangikhulula.
ɔno na ogye me fi mʼatamfo nsam. Wopagyaw me sii mʼatamfo so, wugyee me fii basabasayɛfo nsam.
49 Ngenxa yalokhu ngizakudumisa, Nkosi, phakathi kwezizwe, ngihlabelele ibizo lakho indumiso.
Ɛno nti, mɛkamfo wo wɔ amanaman mu, Ao Awurade. Mɛto ayeyi dwom ama wo din.
50 Iyanika inkosi yayo usindiso olukhulu, isenzela ogcotshiweyo wayo umusa, kuDavida, lenzalweni yakhe kuze kube nininini.
Wode nkonimdi akɛse ama wo hene; woda ɔdɔ a ɛnsa da adi kyerɛ nea woasra no ngo, wode kyerɛ Dawid, ne nʼasefo afebɔɔ.
